b. 5
A has no pedal release mark in this bar. A comparison with the concurrent version in all analogous bars (9, 29 & 33) lets us regard this lack as a mistake. In the main text, in keeping with the A notation in these bars we supplement the mark at the end of bar. In GE1 (→FE→EE) the asterisk was added under a rest, in accordance to a rule applied by GE in the entire opus. It is probably an editor's revision although Chopin's correction cannot be completely ruled out.
The mark's placement in AI is not quite clear— falls under the R.H. quaver g1 but before the rest in the L.H. We take the latter relation as authoritative.
